Trump’s Legal Team to Challenge Validity of 2020 Election in Court
Former President Donald Trump and his legal team plan to use his latest indictment as an opportunity to argue that the 2020 election was stolen from him, according to reports. They intend to challenge the allegations in the indictment that Trump knew his claims of fraud were false but took steps to flip the election results. Trump’s defense team wants to subpoena individuals related to the election while maintaining that he won. However, some Republican strategists believe this plan could be problematic, as it diverts focus from the future and could damage the party’s chances in upcoming elections. Trump’s attorney Alina Habba stated that they will show Trump believed there were issues with the election but won’t have to prove the results were fake. Trump is also facing a potential indictment in Georgia over alleged attempts to influence the state’s ballot. Despite his controversial legal battles, Trump’s allies believe the prosecutions are only strengthening his support and portraying him as a greater threat to his enemies.
